As a lifelong sports enthusiast and a Senior Data Scientist at Genius Sports, building sports models has become a passion of mine. Sports analytics truly is a captivating field: in essence, we can often drill down a successful game into a series of small, mostly good decisions. Understanding how these small decisions impact the game is key in becoming a successful athlete or team.

My analyses are usually the result of me watching a sporting event and asking myself questions about performance and game strategy. After my fiancé Christina told me to start documenting my questions and methodologies for finding the answers, I thought others might be interested in reading about my findings.

So here you have it - my very own blog - The Paraball Notes. Here, I’ll dig deeper into the statistics, intricacies, and strategies that make sports so captivating.
